Typewriter Fonts
Monospaced faces with the uneven charm of ink on paper.
Typewriter fonts fall into two camps: clean monospaced families that recall a well-serviced machine, and distressed faces that mimic worn ribbons, skipped keys and inky edges. Clean ones suit screenplays and editorial pull quotes; distressed ones sell authenticity on posters and book covers. Because every glyph shares the same width, typewriter type sets ragged lines with a natural rhythm. Keep line lengths short and line spacing generous for the most convincing effect.
